The Italian-based Pininfarina car design firm and coachbuilder sourced in Cambiano has been customizing exquisite and luxurious models for more than 50 years, with strong partnerships with different important carmakers like BMW or Rolls-Royce.

Speaking of Rolls-Royce, Pininfarina also built perhaps one of the most luxurious models on the market today, the Rolls-Royce Hyperion, unveiled at the Pebble Beach Concourse d`Elegance, back in 2008. Back then, the luxury car was appraised at no less than whopping $6 million.

Now the model is available for sale for a “mere” $2 million. For that price you get a lot of custom carbon fiber body parts, especially inside, where the cabin is fitted with a compartment for hunting rifles.

More than that, the doors are made of high-quality wood, while the rear seats have been removed for additional legroom for the front passengers. Let`s not forget the Girard-Perregaux watch on the dashboard, which can also be worn at your wrist as well.

Under the hood, the Rolls-Royce Hyperion packs a massive 6.7-liter naturally aspirated V12 mill, with 460 horsepower and 720 Nm of torque, hooked to a six-speed automatic transmission.

An impressive photo gallery with the exclusive model is presented below. Enjoy the video and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

The special project born of Pininfarina and BMW was first revealed to the world at the 2013 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este.

While it did turn plenty of heads, the Gran Lusso Coupe certainly wasn’t the best in the show, with so many rare cars also making an appearance.

Now plans are for the Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe to cross the ocean and arrive in North America, where it will be showcased in the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. This is another chance for the Gran Lusso to prove its worth, and show to the world that BMW collaborated with Pininfarina for a good reason.

The unique BMW will be presented at the Concept Car Lawn, for those that will be there. As a reminder, BMW gave Pininfarina free hand to do what they wanted, and they were not disappointed. While the Italian imprint is quite obvious, the Gran Lusso Coupe still ended up feeling as much as a Bimmer as any other.

It has been well known for quite a while that Pininfarina started to collaborate with BMW for a new concept that should wear the name of BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe.

After all, the concept was first introduced in May 2013, during a special contest – Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este.

To connoisseurs, that is thep lace where the most luxurious and exclusivist designs are introduced and the fact that BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe went in says a lot!

So what can we personally appreciate more about its design? The twin – circular led lights or the matte sheen grille made from aluminum?

One of the widely discussed design elements at BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe were the sporty yet surprisingly elegant wheels of 21 inch.

Even so, the most breathtaking view is the one from the inside, where comfort, sportiness and elegance bind together in unique geometrical details.

Take a further look at close up shots and you will conclude that BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe is one of the most beautiful and elegant combinations we have seen so far. Can you name a more beautiful one?

BMW pulled the wraps off an impressive concept model developed in partnership with Pininfarina. We talk about the BMW Gran Lusso Coupe, a concept which debuted few days ago at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este.

With a futuristic approach, the German prototype comes with more aggressive LED headlights, a larger front grille, sloping roofline, large 21-inch alloy wheels and new taillights.

Even the exterior styling is breathtaking, the interior is even more impressive being fitted with Tobacco Brown leather, rare kauri wood trim, LED ambient lighting, Italian wood headliner and a sport steering wheel.

Under the hood we find a powerful 6.0-liter V12 engine rumored to produce around 550 horsepower and 750Nm of torque.
